Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 198,214 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 198,214 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 927,462
3 | 927, 462 |
309, 154 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 309 x 154 = 142758
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/142758
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 198/927,214/462 is 2/142758
The formula of LCM is LCM(a1,a2,a3....,an) = ( a1 × a2 × a3 × .... × an) / GCF(a1,a2,a3....,an) x common factors(if more than 2 numbers have common factors).
We need to calculate greatest common factor of 927,462 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(927,462) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(927,462) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(927,462) = ( 927 × 462 ) / 3
LCM(927,462) = 428274 / 3
LCM(927,462) = 142758
